Our shop is on Rivers Avenue. When you call at 2am from Park Circle or Oak Terrace, we are not dispatching someone from another county — we are already here.
What it costs, before we start
Ask around North Charleston and the going rate for plumbing work lands somewhere between $45 and $165 an hour depending on who you call and when. We quote the job, not the clock, and you approve the number before any work begins. No after-hours surcharge appears later in the invoice.
Steady work, not seasonal panic
Unlike the outer suburbs, emergency calls here do not jump with cold snaps. It runs steady all year, because the failures are age-driven rather than weather-driven — cast iron that finally gives out, galvanised supply that closes up, a water heater that was original to a 1990s renovation. That means we are not overwhelmed in February the way freeze-driven markets are.
What we handle at any hour
- Burst and leaking supply lines
- Sewer backups into tubs and floor drains
- Water heater failure and tank leaks
- Main line breaks between meter and house
- Gas leaks, treated as immediate
- No-water and no-hot-water calls
Know your shutoff
In pre-war Park Circle homes the main is usually a meter box at the street and needs a key. In post-1996 builds it is typically in the garage or near the heater. Finding yours before you need it turns a flood into a puddle.
